Seems they have a pattern of hate toward students art they find unacceptable:

“Another student identified only as E.D., claims the department told her to “expand her horizons” when she constructed a cross in ceramics class. She said the adjunct professor teaching the course specifically said she could make any item except a cross.

E.D. said Watral phoned her and told her to “pick up her damn crosses” from the school. But she said when she went to retrieve them, they were destroyed. “

True, but if you make a really ornate example on say, celtic lines, then its very difficult for them to argue against it for “artistic” reasons. Therefore it becomes more obvious what their actual motives are.

The primary reason why this has happened - in my opinion - is that many lefty types have been willing to work for lower starting wages during the 80s while entrepenuers went for the big casino - the pay off from hard work and creative ideas. In the 29 years since Regean was elected, but also since the education department was in full control, we have seen the facts you laid out become the rot of our society.

I wish it were that innocent but I don’t believe that it is. I think they were following their game plan. The sad thing is that the game plan was entered into the congressional record in 1963 so we can’t say we weren’t aware of it. We knew what they planned to do and we let them do it. We are now paying the price and it is a dear one.
